Form for baking grease with oil, sprinkle with crushed breadcrumbs or semolina. You can build a form with baking paper, cut a circle equal to its diameter, and the strip at the height of the walls. These preparations should be made before kneading the dough.

Eggs warm to room temperature. Separate the yolks from the whites and whisk with sugar: first the egg yolks until the sugar is dissolved and the volume increases by 2-3 times, and proteins to the formation of a white stable peaks. You can beat the eggs and without division, but the way the mass is well aerated, so that the cake becomes delicate porous structure.

Add whipped whites to the yolks, gently involving them from the bottom up with a spatula or spoon. Flour, which if desired can be mixed with baking powder or cornstarch, but this is not necessary - the dough rises due to the well-beaten eggs.
